Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. Text in English. 356 pp. B/W photographs. Cecil Beaton's sense of style and his much celebrated career as a designer for film and stage have come to overshadow his position as one of the great photographers of the twentieth century. Beaton's persona provided… a mask that concealed the seriousnegs of his accomplishment. Looking back over the seven decades of his career. we discover much more than a social record. By mid-century he had shed much of the theatricality to produce an astonishing array of portraits of the greatest creative figures of his time - Picasso, Gertrude Stein. Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon. His photographs of women, including Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe, are among his best work. There is even evidence of a sparse modernity in his extraordinary eye. Mostly drawn from the many thousands of photographs and negatives in the Cecil Beaton Studio Archive at Sotheby's, this book offers a reassessment of his photographic career. In childhood Beaton became an obsessive photo collector. From his teenage years his sisters served as his first models. Making photographs became an extension of a family costume play. He was to become a star for Vogue on both sides of the Atlantic, moving through the Hollywood studios as confidently as he frequented the drawing rooms of English society. For a period he w as heavily influenced by Surrealism, which appealed to his theatrical sensibility. His innate sense of the elegance of dress and suited his role as a great fashion costume photographer. By the sixties he was at home at the Palace photographing the Qucen, as he was in the company of the celebrities of swinging London or with Andy Warhol and the stars of the Factory in New York, His career entered a final phase after photographing Mick Jagger on the set of Performance. which was itself a swansong for an era. The book, with its recurring cast of characters, becomes a visual narrative of his life. Cecil Beaton, Photographs follows the definitive monograph of his work during the war years, Theatre of War, published by Jonathan Cape in association with Imperial War Museums in 2012.
